Official Video for “Diamonds And Pearls (Special Olympics: Live at Metrodome, July 1991)” by Prince & The New Power Generation DIAMONDS AND PEARLS Super Deluxe Edition out NOW. Order https://Prince.lnk.to/DPSDlxID Prince & The New Power Generation premiered the title track from their upcoming album Diamonds and Pearls 10 weeks before release at the opening ceremonies of the Special Olympics at the Metrodome in Minneapolis on July 20, 1991. Originally broadcast on ABC, the performance features the first public performance of the song and is actually the biggest venue that Prince ever played in his home town. The performance (which also includes an amazing medley of Let’s Go Crazy, “Baby I’m A Star” and “Push” from Diamonds and Pearls) along with the soundcheck captured in Stereo, 5.1 and ATMOS on Blu-ray is a highlight of the video portion of the Diamonds And Pearls Super Deluxe Edition. The Diamonds And Pearls deep dive exploration is out now via all physical, digital, and streaming partners, with the classic album remastered for the very first time, and featuring 33 previously unreleased studio tracks, live audio, as well as a previously unreleased 2+ hours of video concert performances from Prince’s legendary vault.

The Super Deluxe Edition also features 33 previously unheard studio gems from Prince’s Illustrious vault, ranging from alternate versions of album tracks, to numbers Prince gave away to other artists, and songs recorded while on the road in 1990. The previously unreleased live performance of Prince & The NPG at his Minneapolis club, Glam Slam, on January 11, 1992 has been mixed from the 24 track master and rounds out the audio content of the 7CD and 12LP sets.
